Ingredients

• 6 C water
• 1 lb ground beef (uncooked)
• 3/4 C medium barley
• 2 large carrots, diced
• 2 large stalks of celery, chopped (with leaves)
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 T dried parsley
• 2 t salt
• 1/2 t pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Mix everything in a large soup pot, stirring to break up the beef. Cook over medium heat for one hour or until barley and veggies are soft.

Can be frozen; leftovers are even better.
